I need help with a story I have been working on at odd moments for a while. One of three or four “in progress” that I hope, someday, to post to Lit.

The theme of the story is the introduction to anal eroticism of a reluctant male by two eager females. I have characters, sketched as follows:

Andrea. Female protagonist #1. A “Lady of Lit” type. She is very open to lots of new ideas and experimental. She is also madly in love with Harold, male protagonist, and is essentially straight and essentially faithful. Her moments of not straight and not faithful are that she has a long standing relationship with Steffie, described below.

Harold, male protagonist. Nice guy, but fairly boring. A “steak and potatoes” kind of guy. In every room of the house, including the bedroom. Loves Andrea and will do about anything for her. Knows about and is ok with her bi relationships with Steffie, though Harold is 100% true blue. Will usually go along with a lot of Andrea’s willingness to experiment, but is usually eager to get back to steak and potatoes. Harold would gladly take andrea to the French restaurnat of her choice, so long as the menu has “biftec” and “pomme de terre.” Harold’s major limit is that he is majorly homophobic. Lives with Andrea’s homoerotic experiments, but no desire for any homerotic experience of his own, or anything that might resemble it.

Steffie, female protagonist #2. Steffie could be the basis for a novel. Used to dance in a strip club, and from there graduated to escort/private entertainment. As both her network and cash built up, she started her current venture-catering sexual fantasies for a select clientele. She may or may not participate in those catered events, depending on whether the fantasy and the client interest her. Steffie is very openly bi, and enjoys it. Andrea and Steffie were in school together, where they had their first pajama parties together. While they are not regular lovers, they are girlfriends who enjoy sex together periodically.

My problem with this story is the beginning. No real outline here. Steffie and Andrea have played around with strapons a few times and enjoyed it. Andrea decides she wants to use one on Harold. Sh attempt to introduce Harold to anal eroticism by fingering his anus while blowing him. Harold, of course, thinks that anything homoerotic, like getting fucked in the ass, by anyone male or female, is just too gay. Over the top. Jumps higher than a virgin looking at John Holmes when Andrea sticks a finger in his ass.

Andrea tells Steffie about all of this. The two of them then decide to train Harold. They seduce Harold into the bedroom and tie him to the bedposts. Steffie tells Harold that “By Monday morning we are going to have you begging for it like a girl.”

The story is the story of the weekend of the training and feminization of Harold, at first unwilling, and eager by Monday morning.

I just can’t get the beginning of this thing to work to get to the Steffie line. Any help? Suggestions? Should I just give up on it?
 
By the way, the pieces or sketches of this story that I have written, which I ragard as its "middle" and "end" are from a Thrid Party Omniscient POV. Have thought of redoing that from the POV of Harold. His might be the most interesting.

That help any?

Seems like the conflict lies with Harold. He is the one undergoing the transformation. Third person is fine, but maybe limit yourself to Harold's POV.

You could use the visual turn-on of Harold watching the women use the strap-on with each other. When you tie him down you remove his free will. You might want him to be a more willing participant, brought along rather than forced.

Your beginning is your end - the Monday morning after Harold's weekend transition. You can tease with references to the changes in his attitudes and reaction to his experiences.

Hope this helps.
 
You said that Harold would have no desire for any homerotic experiences but you want the women to push it on him. Why not use the weekend as a time for both the women to change his mind, possible showing videos or even a real life demo for him between the two women.
Why try and train him and feminize Harold? Maybe showing him what he could be enjoying would awaken his desire to experiment anally.
You said you wanted it to be an introduction to anal erotism then I think a gentle approach would be more suited then forcing it on Harold.
Or maybe Harold finds he likes the dominatrix approach from Steffie.

Maybe the conversation between Andrea and Steffie could be the opening of the story, the how and why they are going to seduce Harold.

Good luck with it.

Thanks for the observations. This may help. The problem I have had with these characters is that they a re composites of people I know in RL. Usually my past dabbling with fiction has been on characters who are about 90% products of the imagination. These characters are only about 15% products of the imagination.

I do not have any sketches where Harold is truly "forced." as I am not a big fan of "nonconsent," rape, or anything of the sort. In my sketches and scraps, Harold is initially unwilling, is always having his limits pushed a little further than he is comfrtable with, but is ultimately a willing participant.

The Harold POV is troublesome, a bit. I like Harold. I want Harold to go from all "steak and potatoes" to decidiing that it is fun and acceptable to put a Bordelaise on his steak. But Harold is nowhere near as much fun or as exciting as the women are.
 
have you tried...

You said you're having trouble with the begining. When I'm having trouble with a story I really want to write, I skip to the parts that I am excited about, and write them. There's no shame in having six or seven pages out of sequence when you're writing a story like this.

Have you tried skipping ahead and just writing the part where harold is tied to the bed? Write that scene, it sounds so fun! Then you can write other scenes as they come to you. Worry about putting them together later, we're patient and I can wait to read your story = ) But I *do* want to read this one!
